Le Morte d'Arthur: King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table by Thomas Malory
2.0
I can forgive boring, I can forgive repetitive, I can forgive poor writing, but all three together? No. Mallory was (according to the introduction) in jail for very good reasons, but the least he could have done to atone for his crimes is write a better book.
Also, there was a mistake in the introduction, Beowulf's maternal uncle is Hygelac, not Hrethel. That being said, for a book in which the author can't decide if Arthur fathered Mordred or not, it's fitting.
